About Us

JOHNNY DANG & CO.

Johnny
Dang has single handedly changed the way entertainers today wear
jewelry. Known as “The Jeweler to the Stars”, Dang created eccentric
jeweled pieces that accessorized and defined the lifestyles of popular
Hip Hop stars today. Best known for popularizing diamond encrusted
mouth pieces referred to as “Grillz”, Dang influenced the Grammy Award
winning Hip Hop collaboration of Nelly and Paul Wall. Nelly and Paul
Wall’s song “Grillz” colorfully elaborated on the jewelry phenomenon
that was taking over the entertainment industry. From Paris
Hilton and Hugh Heffner to P.Diddy and Kanye West, everybody was
rocking a grill!

Dang’s struggle to become Hip
Hop’s most beloved jeweler wasn’t always diamonds and gold. Starting as
a watch repair technician and renting a small section in a local
Houston Flea Market led to Dang’s passion for creating a brand. His
next business venture began with a location in Sharpstown Mall also in
Houston Texas, and later a second store in the same mall. Johnny’s
popularity and business tenacity forced other competing chained jewelry
stores such as Zales to close their doors. On any given day; celebs,
out-of-towners and the regular window shoppers flood his stores.

Considered
an architect of the entertainment industry’s fascination with “bling”,
all of his creations are custom made and manufactured in house at their
state-of-the-art jewelry workshop and repair facility.

Known for his eclectic and over-the-top custom creations, customers can
design and create their dream piece of jewelry. Starting with a
consultation our designers, your idea is sketched and turned into
drawing to help you create your custom piece. Johnny Dang and CO.

XXL, The Source and Ozone, his own reality and video show “The Johnny
Dang and Paul Wall Show”, as well as featured on several episodes of
MTV’s Super Sweet Sixteen, BET’S Spring Bling, and an introspective
documentary centered around the controversy of diamond mines in Africa
for MTV featuring Paul Wall and Talib Kweli. Today Mr. Dang along with
his multi-platinum Hip Hop star partner Paul Wall, now have a third
location in the signature luxury mall in Houston, Texas, The Galleria
(next door to Neiman Marcus), over 50 wholesale accounts, a reality
show, and a roster of celebrity clients that mirrors the red carpet at
the Grammy Awards. One of the most popular faces in Hip Hop today
without even spitting a 16-Bar, Johnny Dang continues to recreate the
jewelry industry.
